Inspired by a Daily Odd Compliment :)
"I think squirrels really love spaghetti."
"What?" Annie looked up from where her head was settled on Auggie's chest. She had been dozing off in his arms as they lay on his bed. He blinked, and his eyes flashed for a moment as if he hadn't meant to say it.
"I uh, I think squirrels really love spaghetti." He repeated.
"What are you talking about, Auggie?" His eyes starred unseeingly at the ceiling for a moment, an internal battle taking place behind them. He seemed to be contemplating something.
"I mean, there's absolutely nothing to suggest this is true. But squirrels? Spaghetti? It just makes sense, you know?" He stumbled over his words, and she shifted so she could see his face properly. His eyes moved to somewhere next to her ear, before he closed them.
"Auggie?"
"That being said, I...I uh... I-love-you-as-much-as-I-think-squrriels-love-spaghetti." He said, soft and with lightening speed, so it took her a few seconds to understand it. Then she giggled, kissing him gently.
"I was worried for a second!" She laughed. He grinned widely at her response.
"Worried? About me? Well, Ms. Walker, you DO care!" This earned him another kiss, and he felt her wide smile against his. She giggled again, settling back into his arms.
"I guess you're just my spaghetti, Auggie."
Oh so fluffly :DD
